On the fifth day of studying spiritual power, Xiang Beifei routinely took a car to Liangzhou University, ready to share his insights with Elder Luo. However, when he found Elder Luo, he noticed that the elder seemed to be in a bad mood, sitting in a chair and cracking sunflower seeds.


    Spit! Spit! Spit!


    The shells he spit out flew like bullets, leaving the nearby trash can riddled with holes! That trash can had seen better days and was now definitely on itsst legs.


    [You vented your anger on the trash can, leisure value +1]


    "What''s wrong, Elder Luo? You seem really upset?"


    "Don''t even start, it''s bad luck!" Elder Luo snapped angrily.


    "What happened? Could someone actually make you so angry?"


    Xiang Beifei pulled up a chair and honestly sat next to the distressed elder.


    Elder Luo passed a small handful of sunflower seeds to Xiang Beifei, huffing angrily, "You have huge potential, but those people at the school really have no vision. I have to cultivate you properly, and in the future, you must help me take my revenge! Hang up those SSR talents and beat them hard! See if they dare to spout nonsense! Dare to be arrogant in front of me!"


    "SSR? Were you bullied by SSR?" Xiang Beifei asked, puzzled.


    "Didn''t I tell you a few days ago, this year there are eleven SSR new students in the entire Jiuzhou alliance? Originally, the school had already negotiated with two SSR Awakeners, offering them huge benefits toe to our Liangzhou University. But these two guys turned their backs at thest minute! They took the benefits, then refused toe to our university!"


    Elder Luo was livid.


    "They did what?" Xiang Beifei eximed in surprise, "What made them change their minds?"


    Among the nine elite universities, Liangzhou University''s overall strength was not the very top, but it was still passable. The university was teeming with powerful Awakeners, making it a great choice for studying here.


    Elder Luo stopped, saying helplessly, "It''s because of you."


    "Me?" Xiang Beifei grew even more confused, "I don''t think I''ve even met them."


    "Because a few days ago, our Liangzhou University admitted you, an N-level new student! Then, the recruiters from other universities seized the chance to undermine us, basically saying that the quality of education at Liangzhou University had declined, sinking to the point of epting an N-level student, and then they persuaded the SSRs. Basically, at that time, they implied that the reputation of Liangzhou University was lowered by an N-level student like you! They disdaineding to our Liangzhou University and went to Qingzhou University and Yanzhou University instead."


    "Is that even possible?"


    Xiang Beifei found it bizarre that just because Liangzhou University admitted him, an N-level student, two SSR students didn''t want toe anymore. They disdained to be in the same school with him, an N-level student?


    "Last night when you weren''t here, many of our school''s leaders went to retain those two SSRs, but they ended up being openly ridiculed by the admissions staff from Qingzhou University and Yanzhou University. At that moment, I nearly grabbed those bastards and gave them a beating!"


    Elder Luo was so angry he was blowing his beard and ring, and then spat out another sunflower seed shell, making another hole in the trash can.


    He was straightforward and lived a straightforward life, never beating around the bush when it came to speaking his mind.


    "I wanted to use your potential as a counterargument, but, unfortunately, empty ims only made matters worse. You have no idea how furious I am, knowing your potential but unable to prove it to them! It drives me mad!"


    Elder Luo tugged at his own beard, extremely aggravated.


    "It''s the first time I''ve heard of refusing the invitation from Liangzhou University because of an N-level student. Don''t you guys sign some kind of agreement that makes it impossible to back out?" Xiang Beifei said.


    "It was still under negotiation! We were about to sign, but just before we did, they were persuaded by the people from Qingzhou University and Yanzhou University." Elder Luo exined.


    After a long pause, he added, "These people are really shortsighted! They actually look down on you!"


    Elder Luo cursed loudly, "They simply don''t understand your potential. What does being N-level matter? Could an N-level who has killed so many deste beasts be that simple? What''s so great about SSR-level? It''s just... it''s just..."


    Elder Luo intended to say something harsh, but after saying "it''s just" for a while, he struggled to find a suitable word to describe it.


    Because SSR—


    Was truly remarkable!


    Having mid-stage Qi-Controlling strength right after awakening, and two monthster, now possessingte-stage Qi-Controlling strength!


    A whole minor realm higher than Xiang Beifei''s current cultivation!


    With such talent, given time, they might reach Meridian Opening stage within half a year, and possibly God Refining stage by the time they graduate from college in four years!


    "Bastards, just because they have an extra S! As if they''re so great, daring to act all haughty in front of me; I could p them dead with one strike!" Elder Luo grew angrier the more he thought about it.


    It wasn''t that he was angry SSRs weren''ting, but because he was ridiculed by other schools'' recruiting officers, and he had no way to refute them.


    [You fiercely cursed the SSR freshmen, leisure value +2]


    "I see!"


    Xiang Beifei continued calmly cracking sunflower seeds, and then asked, "Since they''re noting to Liangzhou University anymore, can you ask them to return the benefits they took?"


    "You make it sound so easy! It''s just that those people at our school can''t lower their faces, saying that after all, they are SSRs, and their future achievements are boundless; this little benefit is like making friends with them. I justugh! Make friends my ass! They look down on our Liangzhou University and still want to make friends? Trying to stick a hot face to their cold butts?"


    Elder Luo was very displeased with the way those leaders at Liangzhou University handled the situation, and then patted Xiang Beifei on the shoulder, "Wouldn''t it be better to give those things to you instead!"


    Xiang Beifei stroked his chin.


    Hmm, that''s not a bad idea.
